Fizzy CLI Skill

Requirements (Install & Auth)

Install via Homebrew (macOS)

brew install robzolkos/fizzy-cli/fizzy-cli

Configure Credentials

The CLI needs your API token and account. You can set these via environment variables or config files.

Environment variables (recommended for Clawdbot):

# Set these before running fizzy commands
export FIZZY_TOKEN="your_token_here"
export FIZZY_ACCOUNT="your_account_slug"  # e.g., "0000001"
export FIZZY_API_URL="https://fizzy.domain.net/"  # self-hosted
export FIZZY_BOARD="your_default_board_id"  # optional

Or use a config file (~/.config/fizzy/config.yaml):

token: your_token_here
account: your_account_slug
api_url: https://fizzy.domain.net/
board: your_default_board_id

Get Your Token

1. Go to your Fizzy profile → Personal Access Tokens
2. Generate a new token with Read + Write permissions

ID Formats

IMPORTANT: Cards use TWO identifiers:

Field	Format	Use For
id	03fe4rug9kt1mpgyy51lq8i5i	Internal ID (in JSON responses)
number	579	CLI commands (card show, card update, etc.)

All card CLI commands use the card NUMBER, not the ID.

Other resources (boards, columns, comments, steps, reactions, users) use their id field.

---

Response Structure

All responses follow this structure:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": { ... },           // Single object or array
  "meta": {
    "timestamp": "2026-01-12T21:21:48Z"
  }
}

List responses with pagination:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": [ ... ],
  "pagination": {
    "has_next": true,
    "next_url": "https://..."
  },
  "meta": { ... }
}

Error responses:

{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "NOT_FOUND",
    "message": "Not Found",
    "status": 404
  },
  "meta": { ... }
}

Create/update responses include location:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": { ... },
  "location": "/6102600/cards/579.json",
  "meta": { ... }
}

• comment list
• tag list
• user list
• notification list

Common jq Patterns

Reducing Output

# Card summary (most useful)
fizzy card list | jq '[.data[] | {number, title, status, board: .board.name}]'

# First N items
fizzy card list | jq '.data[:5]'

# Just IDs
fizzy board list | jq '[.data[].id]'

# Specific fields from single item
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data | {number, title, status, golden}'

# Card with description length (description is a string, not object)
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data | {number, title, desc_length: (.description | length)}'

Filtering

# Cards with a specific status
fizzy card list --all | jq '[.data[] | select(.status == "published")]'

# Golden cards only
fizzy card list --indexed-by golden | jq '[.data[] | {number, title}]'

# Cards with non-empty descriptions
fizzy card list | jq '[.data[] | select(.description | length > 0) | {number, title}]'

# Cards with steps (must use card show, steps not in list)
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data.steps'

Extracting Nested Data

# Comment text only (body.plain_text for comments)
fizzy comment list --card 579 | jq '[.data[].body.plain_text]'

# Card description (just .description for cards - it's a string)
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data.description'

# Step completion status
fizzy card show 579 | jq '[.data.steps[] | {content, completed}]'

Activity Analysis

# Cards with steps count (requires card show for each)
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data | {number, title, steps_count: (.steps | length)}'

# Comments count for a card
fizzy comment list --card 579 | jq '.data | length'

Example Workflows

Create Card with Steps

# Create the card
CARD=$(fizzy card create --board BOARD_ID --title "New Feature" \
  --description "<p>Feature description</p>" | jq -r '.data.number')

# Add steps
fizzy step create --card $CARD --content "Design the feature"
fizzy step create --card $CARD --content "Implement backend"
fizzy step create --card $CARD --content "Write tests"

Create Card with Inline Image

# Upload image
SGID=$(fizzy upload file screenshot.png | jq -r '.data.attachable_sgid')

# Create description file with embedded image
cat > desc.html << EOF
<p>See the screenshot below:</p>
<action-text-attachment sgid="$SGID"></action-text-attachment>
EOF

# Create card
fizzy card create --board BOARD_ID --title "Bug Report" --description_file desc.html

Create Card with Background Image (only when explicitly requested)

# Validate file is an image
MIME=$(file --mime-type -b /path/to/image.png)
if [[ ! "$MIME" =~ ^image/ ]]; then
  echo "Error: Not a valid image (detected: $MIME)"
  exit 1
fi

# Upload and get signed_id
SIGNED_ID=$(fizzy upload file /path/to/header.png | jq -r '.data.signed_id')

# Create card with background
fizzy card create --board BOARD_ID --title "Card" --image "$SIGNED_ID"

Move Card Through Workflow

# Move to a column
fizzy card column 579 --column maybe

# Assign to user
fizzy card assign 579 --user USER_ID

# Mark as golden (important)
fizzy card golden 579

# When done, close it
fizzy card close 579

Add Comment with Reaction

# Add comment
COMMENT=$(fizzy comment create --card 579 --body "<p>Looks good!</p>" | jq -r '.data.id')

# Add reaction
fizzy reaction create --card 579 --comment $COMMENT --content "👍"

---

Rich Text Formatting

Card descriptions and comments support HTML. For multiple paragraphs with spacing:

<p>First paragraph.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Second paragraph with spacing above.</p>

Note: Each attachable_sgid can only be used once. Upload the file again for multiple uses.

---

Default Behaviors

• Card images: Use inline (via attachable_sgid in description) by default. Only use background/header (signed_id with --image) when user explicitly says "background" or "header".
• Comment images: Always inline. Comments do not support background images.

---

Workflow Summary

1. Determine the action - What does the user want?
2. Check for account context - Use --account=SLUG if needed
3. Run the fizzy command using Bash
4. Parse JSON output with jq to reduce tokens
5. Report outcome clearly, including card numbers/entity IDs for reference
